The serum is the combination of gel and toner kind.  The serum is transparent.
Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Serum after 2seconds
The serum turns into fluid and absorb into the skin so a pump is actually enough for the whole face. If you have drier skin, you would probably need two pumps.  One pump is enough for my whole face.

Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Serum after 1 minute
The serum after 1minute just get absorb into the skin and leave a little moist look-the type you get when the skin is well moisturise. It is not oily or greasy at all.

The serum does it work as rich moist soothing serum as it is really moisturising but doesn't leave a heavy feeling on the skin.  I can still feel that my skin is moist even after few hours.   It immediately soothes my skin that was very dry.  Besides, I do like the scent too. =).  I find it important to include hydration in my current skincare products now as my skin is getting drier because of the sudden change in the weather.

If you are travelling to other countries during winter be sure to bring this along.It is really handy to make sure that your skin is hydrated during those time. Dry skin can lead to more fine lines and wrinkles.

Klairs Supple Preparation Facial Toner
There is a plug to prevent spillage during shipping so this is really helpful.

Klairs Supple Preparation Facial Toner
The hole is not that big so you won't spill a lot even if you drop it to the floor.

Klairs Supple Preparation Facial Toner
Sorry, can you see how dry my skin is? The toner has a fluid form but unlike water, it has a thicker texture which absorb into the skin fast.  Although it is recommended for dry skin, combination skin will also like as it doesn't leave an residue or make the skin feels any oily.  Men would probably like the subtle scent too as it is not floral at all.

The tone makes other absorption of other skincare easier.Since it is formulated with plant extracts, my sensitive did not flare up or turn red.  In fact it helps to calm my skin and clean my pores which interesting because I do not normally find that feature in toners.  I don't think you can use this for mask so please do not try to use as mask.

Overall, I would buy this again and recommend it those who has dry skin or looking for soothing Korean toner.  It is a great products to have in hand although it is a little pricey if you buy it on it's own.  Getting the set which has the toner is a lot of more worth than getting the individual products.

REVIEW ON INNISFREE JEJU VOLCANIC PORE CLAY MASK


I know that Innisfree is already in Malaysia but well I am in a place far away from that big city where beauty products gathered. I actually bought this online because I finally give in to the temptation after so many rave about this clay mask.

Innisfree is a brand that even men like. I didn’t get Etude House skincare products because Etude House skincare lines are more for teenagers and not a person who is going to be in the ‘mature’ categories soon. Since Innisfree is also suitable for adult, I decided to get their famous mask.

I was actually thinking of whether to get the original Volcanic Clay or the Super Volcanic Pore Clay Mask. Then, since I haven’t try the original one before so I was thinking of just maybe getting something not so strong because I read that Super Volcanic Pore Clay Mask smell are stronger than the original.

However, Volcanic line is just for pore concern and so people without acne problem can also use it. If you are looking for combating acne, then go for their Innisfre Bija line.

How to use:

1. Using a toner, remove any residue left on your face.
2. Apply the product all over your face, avoiding the mouth and eye areas.
3. Wash off with lukewarm water after 15 minutes.

 There is a plastic cover to cover the clay mask.

The clay mask has a light brown colour.

INNISFREE JEJU VOLCANIC PORE CLAY MASK

The mask smell like clay and application is easy.  Unlike other mask, this won't make your face feels tight or harden up after 15minutes.  It is easy to wash it off even without warm water.  It is quite drying though if I leave it as it is.  Application of skincare products such as serum and moisturiser is a must after that.  If not, my skin feels like a desert.  I think it is because people my age gradually has skin moving towards dryness.

Other than, it is a very good mask as my face feels really smooth and my pores are all very much smaller.  Definitely recommended for those with big pores concern and age in between 15- 30years old.  Men  would like too =).

I won't recommend it for dry skin or during winter.



Products retails around RM50- RM54 for 100ml.  Made in Korea.
Available at Innisfree Sunway Pyramid and Innisfree global online stores as well as online stores. I got mine cheaper actually

REVIEW ON MY SHOPPING EXPERIENCE WITH SHOP AND SHIP COMPANY ARAMEX

If you are not living in Kuala Lumpur where most beauty brands gathered, I share your same woes and problem.

I am living in a place where I am starved of beauty products.  Don't talk about Innisfree, even Loreal which is readily available in Kuala Lumpur is virtual none existent here.

I can't live without caring for my skin and being away from the beauty world.  I can't stand looking into the mirror with bad skin and only using water and harsh bar soap for my face?????I am sure you would understand my feelings.

Online shopping has become a habit living in such place.  However, many online companies will deliver to our neighbouring countries but just won't deliver to Malaysia.

Watching people raving about those products only torment myself because I just can't get a hold on it without breaking my bank.

To solve that problem, you can use Shop and Ship company which can make your dream of buying things around the world which doesn't ship to Malaysia comes true.

So, here is a break of what is Shop and Ship  company is about:

When you sign up at Shop and Ship , it will: 

1. Provide you with 14 addresses and phone number.  You make your purchases online to be sent to any of the 14 addresses provided or the nearest countries. 

2.  When, all items arrives in Aramex Malaysia’s HQ, you will receive a call from them to arrange a suitable date for your package delivery

3.  They will also ship your parcels to your house here in Malaysia even if it is not in KL area. I got a sms informing me that my parcel is already on the way to me.

*you can’t control the accumulation of products on your SNS addresses.depending on the countries, item are usually dispatched within 2-3 days.


Here is the breakdown of the charges

Example 1: ZONE 1 (UK) to Malaysia = RM45 (<500g)

Example 2: ZONE 2 (India) to Malaysia = RM35(<500g)

UAE: Domestic shipping rates for UAE members are AED 25 for the first 5KG and AED 3 for each 1KG after that.

India, Turkey, Hong Kong and South Africa: Shipping fees mentioned in Zone 1 and 2 above is not applicable to domestic shipments.



Or you can just use the rate calculator to check your shipping fees . It is at the tool box.  I think their service is already consider very reasonable for express service.



Please check HERE for unacceptable materials to avoid your things get stuck at the customs later.


*You can payment your parcels online or to the Aramex Delivery with cash (if it is not outside the delivery area). Please provide exact change.


So, here are the steps on how to sign up and use the service:
1. Sign up Here.

2. An activation code will be send to your email for verification.

3. Then, fill your personal information and details. It will lead you to the payment option of paypal or credit card for their membership.


 For a free lifetime membership worth USD45(RM156) (no hidden charges) you can key in this code: SNSFREE17  (this promo code is specially for readers of my blog only)



4. Once you click “Checkout’, you will arrive at your active account name. 
 Here, at the "My addresses" , you will get to see the page with SNS addresses assigned to you.


5. If you have items arrived any of the SNS addresses, then there will be a tracking number at “My packages" . Just click on the"Shipment No" and you will be brought to the "tracking page" where you can just click on "+ " for full details. 
There will be notification send to your email also. I even receive sms when they are delivering it out of their HQ in KL.






Other perks of shopping with Shop&Ship are:
-express delivery
-shipment tracking
-24/7 customer service
-online payment for shipping charges
-premium services
-exclusive deals


My experience with it

I think their service is good and delivery is fast. Generally, Express shipping cost would have killed me but Shop and Ship  reasonable rates makes shopping online at other countries very much easier and cost effective too.  No more being upset after something that others can get but I can't.  Most of the time, you can get good deals online.  Don't worry even if you are not from big cities like Kuala Lumpur or Johor Bahru as Aramex deliver the products as long as you have an address.

My things were also safe as there is no spillage or  the jar broken even if my products is not in a box so I am very sure that they are very gentle in handling my cosmetics.

I hope that this will solve some problems about shopping from some website such as Amazon, Itsy, Memebox, Sephora, Taobao, beauty boxes or from private mall that just don't deliver to Malaysia.  If you do not know any good website to shop, Shop and Ship Facebook page constantly has latest promotions from international websites, and they even collaborate with some of the online shops to give you better discounts for Shop and Ship  members.

So, here is my haul.  Innisfree and Etude House mask for me.

MY FAVOURITE PRODUCTS IN 2014


2014 marks the second year I started blogging and while I am still searching for the ‘miracle’ of all products, it also marks the changes towards my skin condition and also my age. Much to say while I don’t look like it, I am moving towards looking for anti aging skincare that can also help combating acne.  These two are my main concerns. *Sigh* adding another problem to my life?

Here is one good affordable lip crayon that has 8 colours that will sure rock your boat =).


1.CITY BELLE 2. CITY SLICKER 3. MS. METROPOLIS 
6. DASHING DIVA 7. WEEKEND WILD 8.AFTER HOURS

The simple and light packaging is really handy for travelling. The lip crayon has soft glossy finish which is really creamy and hydrating to the lips. The colours are really vibrant, pigmented and provide one full coverage with just one swipe. It is also really soft on the lips.

I am not sure about the kiss proof but it does stained the cup.  It will probably work out better if you let it dry down first or bloat it first and apply a second layer.  The colour doesn't fade if you don't eat anything.  I don't mind about colour fading since it feels light on my lips and don't dry my lips.


Products, Urbanista Lip crayon retails at RM24.90 .
Products are available at selected Watsons(Midvalley), fashion label F block stores in Sunway Giza Mall, Setia Puchong, Farenheit 88, Cheras Leisure Mall, Bandar Baru Sri Petaling, Kuchai Lama and Bangsar Baru.

FOOD REVIEW ON THE ZUN EXPRESS


When I was walking passed this restaurant, I always wonder about the price and whether it is good.  Thanks to a friend's recommendation I decided to try it.  There are few sets to choose for lunch and since I am curious about the Lotus leaf, I ordered Set B.  It comes with few choice of drinks and dessert.

lotus leaf rice


The rice is wrapped with lotus leaf which is presentation wise look appealing to me.  I was glad that it is not small and look just like the photos.  The rice is of medium texture and it is fragrant with the smell of lotus leaf.  There is mince meat in it and it has a good portion for a big eater like me.


THE ZUN EXPRESS
The Osmanthus Jelly


The Osmanthus Jelly is soft and it melted into my mouth.  No bad and this is the first time I see restaurant use osmanthus to make dessert.  I do like the taste and it is good thought that the waiter bring this the last as we were about to finish our rice.  I bet it wouldn't taste good or cold enough if the desserts were brought in the same time as the lotus rice.

The green tea is not bad and luckily it is not the one with jasmine as I do not enjoy jasmine in my green tea.


Service is not bad and fast.  The waiter is also courteous.

SET B
Lotus leaf Rice, green tea and Osmanthus Jelly RM18.80 per set
service tax of 10%
Government Tax 6%
So after adding it would be around RM23

Non Halal
